The feminine pride
Music blared from the car's speaker and Henry bopped his head to the beat and rhythm as he drove. He had begun to play songs because the car was too quiet and Kelvin had made it clear from his lackluster response that he was not ready to indulge in small talk. It was almost five pm when they arrived at a place unfamiliar to Henry, but considering he was still new here, most places were unfamiliar. There was a gate in front of them and makeshift walls that seemed to block off a large open area. Looking left and right, Henry noticed that many people flocked around the area."Approach the gate," Kelvin ordered.Henry slowly drove closer to the gate and stopped at the behest of one of the two hefty security men there. "Can I help you?" One of them asked when he got to the side of the car. Kelvin gestured at Henry who reduced the volume of the music before he took off his shades and the man unknowingly gasped in surprise when he recognized who he was."Oh my God, Mr. Kelvin!," The man
Safer?
"Turn here," Kelvin said and Henry turned the steering wheel to the direction he pointed.The drive was mostly silent with Kelvin telling Henry when to turn when he approached an intersection. Henry had wanted to ask where they were going to, but Kelvin's serious expression as he looked at his phone discouraged him.He could guess that wherever they were going to, it was important to his uncle. The drive went on for a few minutes until Kelvin told him to stop in front of a store."Here?" Henry asked in confusion as he looked at the store. The place looked shady and it made him feel uncomfortable. It was definitely not a place he would expect his uncle to be affiliated with.Kelvin didn't reply him but just stepped out of the car and walked into the store. Henry just sat in there wondering if he should follow him in or not, or if he should just leave.Henry ended up waiting for his uncle for about five minutes and yet there was no sign of him coming out. He was on edge.Suddenly, a w
Commitments
The men shot at Gary frantically as he jumped out the window. As he was free-falling outside, Gary grabbed the window frame on the third floor and swung himself through the window while maintaining his momentum. He crashed into the room and rolled on the ground before a wardrobe stopped his momentum when he almost broke through it.The men rushed to the window and looked down but they could not see Gary. Confused, they ran out of the room.The noise was bound to bring attention.Gary rolled on his back with a groan before trying to control his erratic breathing.His hands hurt from the force he used to swing himself in here, and he was sure he had dislocated his shoulders.He felt pain in his midsection and looked down to see a bullet wound and a large shard of glass lodged a few inches away from his chest."Yeah, I'm fucked..." Gary said as he bled out on the room's floor......Henry waved at Bianca who waved back before going into her house. He watched her go in before entering
Lady D sends her regards
"Hey," Bianca waved at Henry the moment he walked in.Henry smiled and walked over to her table and sat down opposite her."What's good?" Henry asked."Everything now that you're here," Bianca smiled."Okay, kill the flirting Bianca," Henry laughed."I don't think I can," Bianca bit her lower lip.Henry scoffed, "Honestly, I thought what we had was just a one-night stand. I have zero idea why I'm here or why I agreed to be here.""You're here because you know you didn't want it to just be a one-time thing," Bianca responded."Bold assumption. What makes you say that?" Henry asked."Well, if I was wrong you wouldn't be here," Bianca grinned."I can't affirm nor deny the accuracy of that logic," Henry smiled back."I hear the bathrooms here are really neat, wanna come see it with me?" Bianca asked.Before Henry could answer, she had already gotten up and began to walk into the cafe's restroom.Henry just sat there watching her leave with a smile and after a few seconds, he got up and we
I don't give a shit
Henry drove through the roads with his new car; a Mercedes Benz.Kelvin had told him that this was a gift and that anything that goes wrong with the car, he would have to fix it by himself.If it was in the past, Henry would have rejected the car since he wouldn't know how to gather the money to fix it if something went wrong, but since he knew that he would be getting a job soon, he took on the responsibility.Henry was supposed to have met up with Bianca like ten minutes ago, but since this was his first car, he decided to go on a joyride first and get a good feel of it.However, he had taken a few turns and would be at Bianca's house in a few minutes.He suddenly heard his phone ring and he reached for it to see Bianca's name on the caller ID."Hey, what's up? Sorry, I'm on my way to your place now," Henry said as he picked up the call."Oh, yeah, about that, don't go to my house," Bianca responded."Why? You wanna cancel?" Henry asked."No, I'm just not there. Meet me at the spot
I'm so sorry
Cassidy sat down in the building's waiting area and looked around nervously. She had on a face mask which she used to cover her face so she wouldn't be identified.After all, she was quite popular now after the release of her first single under her record label.The reason she was even in New York was because she had a concert she would be performing in.'Why am I even here?' Cassidy kept asking herself in her head.'This is someone who hadn't called me in months. Don't I have a sense of dignity?'"Hey Cassy," Cassidy heard a painfully familiar voice and she turned to see Kelvin looking at her with a smile."Hi Kelvin," She responded before standing up.Kelvin stretched his hand to her, "come, walk with me."Cassidy looked at his hand before looking back at his face. Her expression told Kelvin already telling Kelvin what she was thinking."Ok," Kelvin dropped his hand, "why don't you just walk with me? Without holding my hand."Cassidy responded with a groan and they both walked outsi
